Pros

Great place to kick start a career Opportunity to build invaluable foundational skills, which would very useful in any organisation Great exposure to network with senior management clients and within Accenture Great place to make great friends, particularly colleagues at similar levels, as everyone have gone through the same ups and downs Lots of drinking and social networking opportunities Good travel opportunities Good Training opportunities

Cons

Horrendous working hours Unappreciative bosses Slave drivers Steep Learning Curve Salary works out to be uncompetitive, considering the long hours Poor work life balance Projects budget and resources tend to be underestimated, leading to very tight delivery timelines and having to sacrifice work quality Very target driven, at times sacrificing work quality and employee welfare Difficult to take time off for training or personal breaks, given project commitments and timelines

Pros

Good compensation and benefits Good maternity leave policy Global knowledge sharing and past credentials Fast career progression Experience working on large programmes

Cons

Conservative culture with lots of 'public' school types Very competitive working environment, with peers all trying to get ahead of you and pressure to keep progressing in organisation Once at senior management levels, there is a ''boys network' you need to become a part of to be successful Although company talks about 'work/life balance', there is still an expectation to work long hours
